The President’s Mistake A Tale of Love and Regret novel Chapter 509

Nathaniel and his team arrived at the Ravenwood estate around noon. The sun was blazing, and the vineyard was in the middle of harvest season, filling the air with a sweet fragrance.

Koen parked the car in front of the two-story house. Ethan was sitting on the steps of the porch, casually playing with a handgun.

He wore light blue jeans and a simple white shirt, giving him a clean appearance. His hair was a bit messy, and the collar of his shirt was slightly open, revealing his well-defined collarbones.

Ethan watched as Nathaniel slowly got out of the car. The house was surrounded by people, all with their guns trained on him. In this country, carrying firearms was much easier.

A slight smile played on Ethan's lips, warm and sweet, with a hint of a roguish charm.

"Hey there, Mr. Nathaniel," Ethan greeted.

Nathaniel stood before him, the breeze from the vineyard rustling his black coat, making him look even more imposing and cold.

"Where's Luna?" Nathaniel demanded.

Ethan chuckled. "Luna? Why do you want to know? She's out having fun."

Nathaniel's expression darkened.

Ethan's smile faded slightly. "I know what you want, Mr. Nathaniel."

"In fact, this has nothing to do with Luna. It was all me."

Nathaniel frowned deeply, and the others were taken aback.

Ethan pulled out a box from behind him, and the sound of guns being cocked echoed around them. He raised his hands. "Easy now; we're here to talk."

"This is a satellite phone. I used to contact Michael. The number you found on Michael's phone is mine."

"Nathaniel," Ethan said, his voice as cold as ice, "this whole thing has nothing to do with Luna. It was all me acting on her behalf."

"Nathaniel, you're always so arrogant, so self-important. Luna has loved you for so long, but you never cared, treating her like dirt."

"Do you even know what love is?"

"You're just a heartless work machine. I don't like you."

Nathaniel sneered. "Your opinions mean nothing to me. Where is Luna?"

Ethan was momentarily stunned before letting out a cold laugh.

" Nathaniel, I just wanted you to know what it's like to lose someone you love. I worked so hard to win Luna's heart, but with just one word from you, she abandoned everything to be with you."

"And even then, you rejected her! So, I decided to kill the woman you love to make you feel that same pain. It's terrible, isn't it?"

Nathaniel's frown deepened. He hadn't expected Ethan to go to such lengths for Luna.

He stared coldly at Ethan. "So, you're planning to take the fall for her?"

Ethan shrugged and smiled faintly. "It was always... my crime."

A frosty look passed over Nathaniel's face, his eyes full of contempt. "Do you think you can hide her?"

"Whether I can or can't, it's my concern!"
